form critics
  Form critics have historical skepticism. They think the Gospel reports are just reflections of the primitive Church, and not authentic historical accounts.
      Book From Sabbath To Sunday Page 18
 About investigating Christ's attitude about the Sabbath is rejected by the form critics: "Form critics would regard this investigation as futile, since they view the Gospels' report of Christ's Sabbath teachings and activities, not as authentic historical accounts but as later reflections of the primitive Church. What Jesus Himself may have thought, they claim is impossible to ascertain." Pg. 18

"The expression 'Lord's day' which first appears as an undisputed Christian designation for Sunday near the end part of the second century, denotes a day which belongs exclusively to the 'Lord'." - Lord's day
